I have a few plants that are 25 days old under a 600 watt hps (2ft away) and they're only about 8 inches tall. Are they too small? Im doing a scrog and was planning on putting the screen 18 inches above the soil will they get taller soon? I only wanted to veg for 2 months then switch to flowering. The strain is indica/sativa mix mostly indica.
25 day old plant - is it the right size?

how tall your plant is isn't a sure fire way to tell if it's healthy or behind schedule. Generally tall plants are recieving less light and stretch for it while plants recieving adequate light tend to grow shorter and more compact. They will definately continue growing and fill in the screen eventually but they will also stretch once put into flower. I think typically you want to raise the screen with the plant as it grows and you should probably try to start training the plant asap to promote a bushier growth.
